Incline Nostalgic Video Game Magazines

"Databladet" (The Data Paper) as a title makes me cringe a bit.

None of the Norwegian computer magazines were worth reading IMO, except perhaps some very early ones from the Speccy/C-64 era. Too dry and humourless. I liked the Swedish "Datormagazinet" (which means the same as "Databladet"); it had a certain Amiga fanboyish charm.
Although today I may have though different. Browsing through my collection of old UK Amiga mags make me cringe today.

Reading 25-year old issues of PC Format is such a lulzfest nowadays.

Computer Bismark ad from BYTE's March 1980 edition, showing once and for all that Richard Garriott didn't pioneer game boxes with Ultima II. :3

That reminds me, I've yet to finish my playthrough of the Spellcasting games... though it's been more than a decade since I started it, I may as well restart from scratch.

LOL at that image of the Alien which is washed out just enough to avoid a copyright infringement lawsuit.
